We have public dental care in my country. Check ups are saying that I "don't have any problems" even though I obviously have an overbite and a cross bite. Maybe even a narrow palate, I don't know, I just know that when I put my tongue in the mewing position that when I bite down my back teeth bite on my tongue.
I tried booking an appointment before for my bite problems but the system is not letting the assistant do it for me. I probably need a new "general check up". Shame that my parents are broke and can't afford private.
When I'm there, how can I lift my problems and tell my dentist so that I can get the help I need. Either through him backing my claims or through him giving me a referral to a guy who knows what he's talking about, like an orthodontist.
All info appreciated. I can answer questions if needed.
